    Hi there! I'm Livie. It's all about the journey, and seeing those results are the wonderful part of it I think. We can share the road together if you don't mind! Woohoo! :D

    You and me both girlfriend! I have been working out for three weeks and I have lost 9 lbs so far. It's good to have support from people that are in the same boat as you!

    You can do this! It is a slow process, I start in October 2009. I have lost 35 lbs. since that time and I have kept it off. It is important to allways keep track of what you eat, and your excerise. I join myfitnesspal about 11 days ago, and I really like the support. Keep up the good work.

    You have come to the right place!!! I'm 5'2" and have been told I should weigh about 125 too... that's probably not realistic for me, so I have my goal set at 140 for now. If I lose more, that's great, but that should get me out of the overweight category.. or close to it!!!!

    Good luck, girl... we'll be checking on ya!

    Good luck with your goals- I am loving this site and have been recommending it to everyone I know (even strangers in the grocery store :smile: ) I have a large goal myself but this site is doing more for me than what I've done on my own in the past two years.

    Hi, I have also been looking for support! Can't seem to figure out the "adding" of friends, and after being on this for about a month, I'm kind of giving up on developing a support system! lol
    I'd love to have some friends to share delicious (healthy) meal ideas with, as well as just keeping each other in line ;) Thanks everyone, good luck!

    The way you add is to click on their name from my page then just "add as friend" it's really simple.. just like Facebook.... then you can search for freinds under invite friends. Just fill in the appropiate boxes and MFP will help you find friends in ur local area if it's recorded. Good Luck and if Not I'll encourage you!!!!
